Setup Pi:

  • upgrade to openPlotter 0.17.0 beta
  • Preferences > Raspberry Configuration > Interfaces > SSH:enable (Remote-access via WinSCP and Putty)
  • sudo apt-get install tightvncserver (make RDP working)
  • sudo apt-get install can-utils
  • sudo apt-get install mc

Setup Android:

  • RDC from playStore (working)
  • aRDP free from playStore (suits my needs best)

Setup piCAN2:


  • add to /boot/config.txt
dtparam=spi=on
dtoverlay=mcp2515-can0,oscillator=16000000,interrupt=25
dtoverlay=spi-bcm2835-overlay
  • add to /etc/network/interfaces (overwritten by /home/pi/.config/openplotter/wifi_server.py!)
#physical can interfaces
allow-hotplug can0
iface can0 can static
bitrate 250000
down /sbin/ip link set $IFACE down
up /sbin/ifconfig $IFACE txqueuelen 10000
  • install canboat
mkdir ~/canboat
cd ~/canboat
sudo apt-get install xsltproc
git clone git://github.com/canboat/canboat
cd canboat
sudo make
sudo make install
sudo apt-get install libconfig-general-perl
  • copy and edit /home/pi/canboat/canboat/config/n2kd to /etc/default/n2kd (is this really needed?)
  • add to /home/pi/.config/openplotter/OP-signalk/openplotter-settings.json (OP ver 0.10.0)
  • add to /home/pi/.openplotter/openplotter-settings.json (OP ver 0.17.0)

configure kplex and signalk

  • 'Signal K Server Plugin Configuration' > activate 'Convert Signal K to NMEA0183'
    • select sentences you are interested in
  • NMEA0183 (this is kplex) > Advanced >
    • add input channel tcp:localhost:10110
    • remove filter at opencpn out channel
[tcp]
